07/13/2018 - Dirt Rag Dirt FestDirt Rag has chosen Big Bear as the location of their second Dirt Fest for a host of reasons, including technical and fun trails, scenic surroundings, a great event venue, and friendly committed staff. Dirt Rag&rsquo;s Quality Manager, Karl Rosengarth, says it best. &ldquo;Over the years, the team at Big Bear has invested a lot of time, effort and expense to make the venue perfectly suited to host our &lsquo;gathering of the tribe.&rsquo; With miles of trails, a performance stage, large pavilion, community bonfire ring, potable water, hot showers and plenty of flat-ground camping, Big Bear has all the ingredients required to make Dirt Fest West Virginia a rousing success.&rdquo; The trails at Big Bear are very different than what you&rsquo;ll find at the Allegrippis Trails, the location of Dirt Fest PA. While the Allegrippis is all about flow, Big Bear features more technical terrain. Big rock features, most notably &ldquo;The Crack&rdquo; (which is literally a crack in a huge rock through which the trail cuts), offer a challenge. But there are plenty of more mellow trails for beginners as well. ?http://morgantownwv.chambermaster.com/events/details/the-northeast-agricultural-and-biological-engineering-conference-nabec-5040778
